playing the saw, uncle slim johnson was sawing on fiddel..tom cat had the wash tub ,,that wash tub was stranges thing it was
wash tub turn up side down ,with what apeared to be mop handle stuck in hole in middle .with three strings from tub to top
handle sounded like the stranges base i ever heard .. any way the moon shine was flowing and we were do-se doing and cotton
eye joe , and skip totol-loue my darling and feeling no pain. i was haven good old time flerting with all ladys ,like i always
do]. when that shine started to hit me ,I broke out in a sweat. and eyes got bleary and hard to stand up.yap i was wasted.
